South Baldy is the highest point of the Magdalena Mountains in central New Mexico, in the United States. It is located in the Magdalena Ranger District of the Cibola National Forest, about 9 mi (15 km) south of Magdalena and 18 mi (30 km) west-southwest of Socorro. It lies just north of the Langmuir Laboratory for Atmospheric Research of the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, and near the future site of the Magdalena Ridge Observatory Interferometer. The peak is the site of an annual mountain bike ascent race up the Langmuir Road as part of the Tour of Socorro.
